Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor wasn’t the first Megaten strategy RPG spinoff. Back in 1994, Atlus released Majin Tensei, which switches between a grid battlefield and a first person view during combat.

Since event scenes and battles take place on the bottom screen Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor Overclocked is almost entirely in 2D. The opening movie is an exception where you’ll see cutouts of the main characters floating around in 3D.

Battles in Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor Overclocked are scored and after you beat the game those points can be used to unlock survivor awards. These aren’t trophies, survivor awards effect the game in various ways.
